MASTER-ICATE robotic very wide field cameras (FOV=2x384 square
degrees, D=72mm, f/1.2, 1 pix = 22 arcsec, http://observ.pereplet.ru)
located in Argentina (Observatorio Astronomico Felix Aguilar,
http://93.180.27.230:8080/) were pointed to the
INTEGRAL TRIGGER_NUM 6599 = Fermi TRIGGER_NUM: 363667496
60 sec after INTEGRAL trigger Time (Gotz et al., GCN 13434, Gruber
and Pelassa, GCN 13437) on 2012-07-11 at 02:45:54.107 UT.
Our cameras are continuously imaging the sky with 5 sec exposures.
On our first unfiltered image (5 sec exposure) we have not found any OT.
We see OT (Lacluyze et al., GCN 13430, Zheng et al., GCN 13432, Elliot et
al., GCN 13438, Fugazza et al., GCN 13439 and Tanvir et al., GCN 13441)
on the sum of 4 images obtained between T0+121s and T0+141s with the
unfiltered magnitude 12.5. Nothing is visible at the OT position on
the individual (m_lim = 12.0) and combined (m_lim=13.0) images obtained
before T0+121s and after T0+141s.
